Study on Public Sector Management in EU about Corruption and Level Living

Abstract:

The paper is a survey analyses of the level of corruption (as measured by the Corruption Perception Index (CPI) and economic development (as measured by the movement of GDP per year, the growth rate), in the time period from 2006 to 2016 for EU 28 and candidate states. Methodology used is a statistical analysis. The limitation of the study consists in the fact the CPI was used as the best measuring method of corruption in all countries in the sample, but CPI does not measure corruption per se; the index measures the perception of corruption.
